Why Matthews Eastmoore?

We work on both the plaintiff and defense sides of construction lawsuits. We have the unique experience and the understanding that comes from seeing both sides.

Common Case Examples

Construction defects, such as poorly performed construction that leads to leaks, use of improper or substandard materials, or breaches of express or implied warranties.

Budget overruns or fraud, such as if a construction company purposefully inflates costs and expenses to earn a higher profit.

Avoidable delays which cause damages, even if the contract specifically states “no damages for delay,” recovery may still be possible.

Warranties in a Construction Defect Lawsuit

Florida law recognizes two types of warranties in construction cases, express and implied.
An express warranty is an explicitly stated promise of performance, such as the use of a specific material for a certain part of construction.

An implied warranty is an unwritten promise that comes with all contracts, in which the manufacturer implicitly states that his product will be fit for a certain purpose. For example, in a pool construction project, the pool must be able to literally hold water for it to be fit to be used as a pool.
